POSSIBLY MAYBE

CONTINGENCY IN A CUP:
Possibly Maybe is the wild card on our menu. There are no strict guidelines for it. Instead it is a celebration of emergent or underrepresented origins, or perhaps a sensory profile that veers far from its regional expectations, or simply it is a lot that is delightfully surprising! We call it contingency in a cup because the flavour profile presents what is 'neither necessary, nor impossible', which is also part of what makes coffee so fun. As Björk says in her song Possibly Maybe, "uncertainty excites me" because "who knows what is going to happen?" 

ORIGIN:
Mbilidino Agricultural Marketing Cooperative Society was founded in 2018 and currently serves 378 producer members. The name ‘Mbilidino’ is a reference to the local towns of Idiwili, Mbulamsege, Ilindi, and Nonde, which is home to the member producers. The area’s loam clay soil is perfect for with the Bourbon and Bourbon-derivative varietals, which includes Blue Mountain, Kilimanjaro, and Luwiro.

FLAVOUR:
Tanzania is one of those regions that do not appear on enough menus compared to its neighboring countries. This offering from Mbilidino is summery and bright with loads of delightful citrus and a sweet backing, think pink lemonade or a grapefruit with a hefty spoonful of sugar on top. You can expect a medium body with some nice rounded flavours of toffee and caramel. The finish is light with more citrus but more jammy, like bright orange marmalade.
